A man was riding his Harley along a California highway when suddenly
the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice,the Lord said,
'Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways,
I will grant you one wish.'
The biker pulled over and said,
'Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want.
The Lord said,
'That request is materialistic,think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking;
the supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would take!
It will nearly exhaust several natural resources.
I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things.
Take a little more time and think of something that could possibly help mankind.'
The biker thought about it for a long time...
Finally, he said,
'Okay, I wish that I, and all men, could understand our wives;
I want to know how she feels inside,
what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment,why she cries,
what she means when she says 'nothing's wrong',
and how I can make a woman truly happy.'
And the Lord replied,
'You want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?'
